The AirTAC Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X150SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 150mm stroke, PT/G air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service. A variable air cushion at both ends lets you tune end-of-stroke deceleration on site.
Small parts pressing does not need a big bore. The MAC16X150SCM turns 0.5 MPa shop air into 100.5 N of push and 86.4 N of pull, backed by 140.7 N at 0.7 MPa, in a 16 mm double-acting body with variable cushioning at both ends and 150 mm of travel.
Its stainless barrel resists corrosion in coolant mist, and the rolling-packed construction - aluminium covers riveted onto the tube - keeps the body sealed without fasteners that can creep loose. For sizing, treat about 60.3 N as the working force at 0.5 MPa instead of the full rating. The CM round-end back cover takes round saddle or pivot fittings directly, and back the cushion needles fully off on first start-up, then close them gradually until end-of-stroke shock disappears.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MA-series datasheet. Barrel: stainless-steel tube (round-body, riveted rolling-packed construction); piston rod: carbon steel with 20µm hard-chrome plating; covers: aluminium alloy. Thread options: PT (blank) / G / NPT. Every MA-series cylinder ships with a built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG position sensors.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 0 N | 0 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 0 N | 0 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 0 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.
| MAC | Standard round-body mini cylinder (double-acting, variable cushion). |
|---|---|
| 0 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×150 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (standard on MA series). |
| CA / U / CM | Back-cover type: CA pivot, U flat-end, CM round-end. |
MA-family variants: MA / MAC (double acting ±cushion), MSA / MTA (single acting push / pull), MAD / MACD (double rod ±cushion), MAJ / MACJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion), MAR (cushioned with integrated F/U mount). Mounting accessories: FA flange, LB foot, SDB pivot; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G / NPT.
Pre-seats terminals in plastic housings with about 60 N of working force before final crimping happens downstream.
Feeds PCB trays one at a time into a test oven; the variable cushion stops the tray slamming at stroke end.
Strokes a small coolant metering valve in a machining cell, where splash and mist never trouble the stainless barrel.
For more muscle, the 20 mm bore offers 157 N and the 25 mm bore 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa; 16 mm stays the choice when the 100.5 N push and 60.3 N working figure already clear your load. Long travel on a 6 mm rod invites rod bending, so support the load in slides rather than letting the rod carry side force.
Note that a standard MAC cannot park a load - with the valve centred or air off, the piston simply drifts - so specify a rod lock where holding matters. The CM round-end cover and a magnet-fitted piston (standard) round out a tidy spec for compact assemblies.
Quick checklist
The datasheet figures are 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical ceiling of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Double-acting drive, variable two-end cushioning, 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) supply, 30-800 mm/s speed and M5x0.8 ports complete the picture.
Back both cushion needle screws fully off at first start-up, run the cylinder, then close them gradually until end-of-stroke noise and shock drop away. Done right, the cushion lets you run faster or carry heavier loads without hammering the covers.
